To LZ whom, it mrtg/pancarte:

Be it known that I, WILLIAM B. SMITH, of Kansas Cil-y, Jackson county, Missouri, have invented new and useful Improvements in CarDoor Hangers, of which tbe following is alspeciiication.

My invention Arelates to improvements' in ear-door hangers; and the object of the invention is .to produce a ear-door hanger that Shall be strong, simple, reliable, and` inexpensive of manufacture. A v

Reference is had to the aoeom pan yin g drawings, in which- Figure l is an elevation of a oai-door in closcd position provided with my hangers. Fig. 2 is a front elevation ot' one of .my iinproved hangers, showingalso one of the trackbar sockets, a portion of thetrack-bar, and

a corner of the oar-door to which the hanger cross-section on the` is' seonred. Fig. 3 is 'a dotted line II Il of Fig. l. Fig. 4 ie 'an elet vation of the upper portion of the inside face of oneof the hangers. Fig. 5 isaside eleva'f tion of the bracket supporting tbe een trai portion of the trank-bar, showing thek traolnoar Fig. 6 is a side elevation of one of the terminal track-bar sockets.

The door 1 is suspended by the hangers .2 from the preferably-cylindrieal track-bar 3, which is secured to the side of the oar by means of the end socket-supports 4 and the .central braoket.

Hangers 2 are made right and left band, and consist, mainly, of a dat portion la', bolted tothe outside of the door, and', at the upper corners, of an inwardly-projecting box or iframe 7, the outer Wall of which is provided with a Vertical slot 16 and the inner wall with a circular opening 18, communicating with two opposite open slotsor extensions 17. Two concave antifriotioxbrollers 8 and 9, provided with projecting axial studs l0, are arranged inside ofr seid box or frame 7', the studs 10 lying Within slots 1.6 and 17, tile rollers 8 and l having been inserted into freine 7 through opening 18.

sembled upon 'track-bar 3, said rollers are traelit-bar extends entirely through When the hangers 2 arc asheld separate from each otiier by said track `bar and are thereby prevented from leaving frame'7.

Trank-.bar 3 is supported tt each end by a socket-piece 1i, the closed side of one of said socket-supports, being shown in Fig. 6.- The base of each of the socket-supports 4 is provided with a point 14, adapted to enter the kside of the oar and more rmly to hold the sooket-support in position. Said sooketsupn ports and tbe bracket 5 are screwed or bolted to the oar. A

The eentral track-bar bracket is shown in Fig. '5 and has the'sarne form as soeketenpports 4, excepting,r that the opening for the its body. Having described my invention, what l claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the 'United States, is'-.

In a oar-'door hanger, the combination of a` cylindrical track-bar, a pair of eocket-enpports'eecured to the oar and embracing the end-s of said track-bar, track-baneupporting brac lietsinterxnediate of said socket-supports, and a pair of doorhangers secured respectively to the upper corners of the oar-door, each hangeropnsisting of a fiat body portion adapted to be 'secured to said door, and an integral upward and inwardly extending hollow frame or box, the outer wall of which is provided with a vertical slot and the inner wall of which is provided with a central oir-' cniar opening and opposite open slots com? inunicating therewith and registering with said vertical 'slot and two .concave antifnich tion1'olle1s arranged in said frame or box and having;` axial projecting studs engaging said slots of said frame or box, and separated from' eeoii other by said track-bnr, substantially es described.
